Comic-Super Heroes and The Ancient Mysteries link

[blackdragon1]

From personal studies & observations, I have observed numerous re-packaged Ancient Mysteries/Secret Wisdom themes in the various religions, sacred texts & literature, legends & mythologies, Freemasonry, sacred geometry, hollywood movies etc

An interesting source of re-packaged ancient wisdom, are the super-hero themes and characters which appear to be coded guides to awakening latent powers of man

SUPERMAN-: wears a predominantly blue(female/passive energies) and red(male/active energies) costume. A Closer examination of the S in the inverted triangle on his check reveals it to be a 'serpent', with the S symbolizing both the S shape of the spine and an abbreviation for 'superman'.

To better understand the concept being presented, we need to reference the Caduceus of Mercury...by perfectly balancing ida & pingala serpents(male/female energies), the kundalini(cosmic fire/serpent) is raised

Hence the Superman is a man, who by perfect equilibrium between the red & blue energies, has successfully raised his kundalini, thereby manifesting the god within

CAPTAIN AMERICA-: symbolizes the same concept as Superman, except in this case, the kundalini serpent is replaced with the blazing star. Thus by perfect balancing of the dual energies/forces of nature, the power of spirit is unleashed

GREEN LANTERN-: Here he wears predominantly green costume. I am yet to figure out what the green symbolizes(though the convention use is for earth element). Interestingly note the Universal Green Lantern Corps, to which the American Green lantern belong. Members accross the cosmos are able to tap to a central energy source via a mystical ring, powered by the collective wills of entities accross the Universe.

Recall the legend of The Ring of Gyges..relate it with the ring of the green lantern. Try to relate the central energy source of the lantern ring and relate it to The Azoth of the philosophers...Fohat of the Theosophists/Tibetans...Great Magical Agent of the magicians....Universal Life Force.....Baphomet......The Sun etc

The Fantastic Four-: Who in my own opinion are coded references to the 4 elements. Ben(Stone chap) symbolic of Earth, Johnny(Fire guy) symbolic of Fire, The chap who stretches to any shape or length symbolic for water which takes any shape or length..and finally Sue(yet to figure out how she may relate to Air)

The list is endless...our super-hero comics are basically re-packaged Mystery School teachings. Any thoughts on my posts?

King Solomon was said to have a ring as well, given to him by the arch-angel Michael...

[paul]

Quite a number of important authors, artists and scientists use their dreams as direct inspiration. This may partially result from the symbolic instruction of humanity that occurs in the dream state.

More generally, it has been traditional for centuries to repackage legends as source material for writings.

;D She talks a lot?

Air is said to be the power of the mind, the force of intellect, inspiration, imagination.

Great post blackdragon, a real eye opener. Most especially Superman. Must take a closer look at him and the others.

Ever noticed that oftentimes it is a common substance that brings down the super hero or the invincible? Water did the Triffids in, a stone can bring Superman down...

Our own rough ashars can do us the most damage...

Ahaa!! Speaking of the power of the mind(for air element), Sue is able to generate force fields with her mind, that protects anyone within the bubble. This ability has saved the Fantastic Four many a time....and what really is this force-field? THOUGHTFORMS. Sue is merely generating thoughtforms..and thoughtforms are the product of MIND. Thanks LorrB

THAT is why I love this forum. When we share what little bits of info we each hold, they sometimes come together and each contributor benefits.

[LorrB]

You might find it an interesting exercise Blackdragon to do a bit of a search on the background of the originator of the The Fantastic Four.

I would love to know more about JK Rowling myself. Whether her knowledge is studied or innate.

[LorrB]

a mystical ring, powered by the collective wills of entities

The Masonic 'Chain of Union'?

Is it under utilized?

She comes from Edinburgh. There are strong inner forces present there and a strong tradition of writing and philosophy.

Supermen ...

Ssss for Superman
Ssss for Spiderman
Ssss for Salvation

Come to think of it.. there is the 'Blue' lodge and the 'Red' lodge
Come to think of it.. there is an S on our apron clasp
Come to think of it.. are good men made better... supermen?

and the one called Jesus Christ. While the Catholic Church preaches one thing, esoteric codes found in paintings of Jesus Christ and in sacred architecture(cathedrals) speak entirely different concepts

I see esoteric codes in the cathedrals and paintings that are identical to Masonic esoteric codes amongst others

The most common painting of Christ seen in cathedrals around the world(I saw this in Edinburg earlier this year..and have seen it in Lagos Nigeria)-:

(1) He wears blue & red robes

(2) He has blue and red rays projecting from a blazing center(his heart), forming 2 edges of a triangle(with christ in between)

Hence this particular potrait is simply a christian version of the Caduceus of Mercury, or Staff of Osiris. Thus while The Christ is taught as a literal personality on the pulpit(exoteric teachings), the esoteric codes reveal him to be symbolic of the cosmic force within man(kundalini), identical to that symbolized by superman

This power is linked to the Sun

Interesting to see Mystery School Teachings/Ancient Wisdom, silently screaming at us, everywhere we turn

[cwhite]

You compare Superman to Jesus... than what of his nemesis Lex Luthor?

[LorrB]

An anagram? - Lux le Thor

....Ultimately stemming from Proto-Indo-European religion, Thor is a prominently mentioned god throughout the recorded history of the Germanic peoples, from the Roman occupation of regions of Germania, to the tribal expansions of the Migration Period, to his high popularity during the Viking Age, when, in the face of the process of the Christianization of Scandinavia, emblems of his hammer, Mjöllnir, were worn in defiance and Norse pagan personal names containing the name of the god bear witness to his popularity. Into the modern period,

Martin Luther?

[LorrB]

Why would you consider Martin Luther as Jesus' arch enemy?

[paul]

It rather depends on whether there is a true church

[paul]

One the things that struck me about the comic depictions of Superman (from my childhood) were the rays going from his eyes to the objects that allowed his xray vision.

A decade later I discovered that it is true that rays go from the eyes. And of course the beings being watched can often detect the energy and feel they are being watched.

Accordingly one may wish not to look directly at a being or look directly only for very short periods.

And the energy rays, being part of the aura, have use as sensory organs - for example being able to run in complete darkness on uneven paths.

[LorrB]

My husband marvels at how I can navigate the house and surrounds in complete darkness, he always takes a torch. I can just sense when there is an object more dense that me (no comments please, lol ). Aura energy would explain that quite nicely.
